Renzi, Draghi and psychoanalysis

Damato's Scratches on Renzi and Draghi …

From the height of his meter and eighty centimeters, always wrapped in tight clothes that make them appear even more, Matteo Renzi could enjoy the spectacle of the crowd at the door or on the tram, as you prefer, by Mario Draghi. Who got the position of prime minister certainly from the head of state, rightly jealous of his constitutional prerogatives, but thanks also to him, who gave Mattarella the opportunity with a lot of shoulder to the second government of Giuseppe Conte, even after having promoted the formation in the summer of 2019. One thing that now he is accused from opposite points of view by the many opponents and some of the few friends left.

Instead Renzi has little fun at the show before the crowd and then the crowd around Draghi because, supported today by the understanding of the psychoanalyst Massimo Recalcati in the Press , he laments the "hatred" – he said – of which he was a victim in the work of liberation by the outgoing Prime Minister. He also – he always says – gave, during the exploration entrusted by Sergio Mattarella to the grillino president of the Chamber Roberto Fico, the opportunity to make the much desired third government, up to participate in the Montecitorio "tables" to agree on the program .

No way. Conte – Renzi pains – continued to be supported by improvised allies, such as the grillini and the piddini, who did not want him to make a really new government, but a simple reshuffle of the one finally resigned, once the resuscitation attempted in the classroom failed of Palazzo Madama with that vote of confidence stopped at 156 yes. It took at least five more to give the first coat of asphalt on the road to Renzi's annihilation traced by Conte's praetorians. Who dreamed of a majority regardless of the Renzians, or what would be left of it with a happier enlistment campaign, between the opposition benches and the former grillini, of "pro-Europeans, willing, responsible" and so on.

Now it is Draghi who, with that crowd in front of the door, could count on a majority regardless of the Renzians, given that they are ready to participate in his "high profile" government, from the benches of the now former opposition, Matteo Salvini's leaguers and Silvio Berlusconi's forcers, as well as of course the "willing" mobilized in vain for a third Conte government. But of course Draghi has no intention of refusing Renzi's hand, practically unconditional.

Indeed, the Renzians are objectively more similar to the history and vision that the former president of the European Central Bank has of Italy's problems, starting with the various emergencies – health, social and economic – mentioned by the President of the Republic before give him the task, explaining the reasons for the impracticability, at this moment, of the early dissolution of the Chambers. Which at the beginning of the crisis had been claimed with curious harmony by the center-right opposition still formally united and by the sectors of the outgoing majority with the motto of "Count or elections", such as that of "Rome or death" carved on the monument of Garibaldi on the Janiculum. Which must have been inspired by Goffredo Bettini , the shadow secretary of the Democratic Party who today in the Fatto Quotidiano – and where else? – calls Renzi a "hit man" complaining that all his "principals" are free.
